Wildlife safari holidays recommendations right now? Africa is a awesome destination if you are searching for raw nature exploration. Some lodges don’t allow children under six on game drives, others have a “no children under 12” policy. But there are plenty of family-friendly safari operators, many lodges have swimming pools and babysitting services, and going on safari as a family is one of the most rewarding experiences for children and their parents, an educational adventure that can instil in travellers of all ages a deeper respect for the natural world and our place in it. There’s a reason it’s called “wildlife”. The animals you’ll see on safari, even in reserves and national parks, are wild and many of them are dangerous predators. That said, safari operators take every precaution to keep you safe by giving you a few rules for game drives (such as: don’t stand up in the vehicle) and providing guards who patrol camps and lodges and can even escort you back to your room after dark in case of an unexpected close encounter with a leopard or baboon. Self-drive safaris occasionally make the news, but are safe if you obey a few simple but essential guidelines such as: keep the windows up and the doors locked, never leave your vehicle and don’t harass the animals.

How to pay: In principle, tourist services such as access to national parks and accommodation in luxury hotels are paid in international circulation currencies: dollars (Kenya and Tanzania) and euros (Madagascar and Cape Verde). Apart from the touristic structures, it is preferable to use the national currency, except for Cape Verde, where, if you have the euro, you will do without problems. You can find ATMs in all major cities. You won’t be able to use the card in many places. Communications / Internet access: the most cost-effective way to communicate with your home, but also to share with your friends on Facebook your experience is to purchase a local SIM.

Seaside area – tens and hundreds of resorts stretch along the white beaches and the green sea and permanently warm to the north and south of Mombassa. Diani Beach is generally considered to be the best beach in the area, but do not expect an experience typical of large seaside resorts – there are not many areas with bars, discos, restaurants, all concentrated within the resort. The city on the coast of Mombassa is quite dangerous and it is best to visit the group. Mount Kenya – Did you climb Kilimanjaro and did you like it? Try the younger brother, Mount Kenya. The landscapes will make you not regret the few hours of cardio. Nairobi – the combination of modern and traditional you will probably like. It is not an impressive city, but it is an experience in itself. You should not miss the Giraffe Center, where you can get closer to the giraffes and, if you give them a little food, you will feel their tongue extremely dry on your fingers.

Masai Mara is known for its great sightings of the Wildebeest Migration that keep migrating every year from Serengeti National Park in Tanzania to Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.
